Poor sound quality September 25, 2008 S. Auty (uk) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Found the product simple to set up. Main problem the ring tone is so low you can't hear it and the handset volume is set to medium so so can't hear callers. After much fiddling with the menu to reset the volume(s) gave up and sent it back.
Very tempermental phone September 21, 2008 Jason (London, UK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Installed this phone a while ago and it worked for a short time. Then suddenly stopped being recognised by the pc as a USB device. Uninstalling and reinstalling made no difference. Rebuilt the pc from scratch, put the drivers back on(from the install cd) and 'usb device not recognised' error still apparent. Contacted philips customer support and they were no help. Wont be buying another Philips skype phone !
Doesn't work with Vista September 3, 2008 floman1 (Kent UK) 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I purchased this phone when I had XP and it worked fine. I have found it impossible however to get it working properly with Vista. Philips Customer Support is abysmal and the phone is now useless. Skype is an excellent tool but if you are running Vista choose a compatible phone NOT this one.
its not bad April 7, 2008 Mr. A. Pallaris (London) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
so i received the item, plugged it in an installed. First thing to mention, if your on vista then the whole setup process is a nightmare. You must first download version 4 of the content disk as v1 is provided inside the box. this was the first hassle with a download of 106mb. Its okay if you on a fast net service like myself, however, so net users ouuuch! Thirdly you must use the right combination of skype v3 and the update driver so that its compatible. Thirdly, every so often the hardware crashes my machine on startup. The device is installed correctly, unfortunately, the drivers out at the moment are extremely buggy. Ah yes let me also say, the sound quality, ah its okay but thats it. Not excellent, its okay and have noticed a constant hiss on the line.
Good phone so far! November 25, 2007 G. Stevens 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Only gripe would be on making SkypeOut calls (to landlines/mobiles) - there is not an option to dial numbers from the phone. Instead you have to first add the number to your Skype contacts on the PC. You can then access your contact list from the phone and dial the number. That's fine for numbers you call regularly, but a bit of a pain for one-off numbers. Apart from that, the phone seems sturdy and the sound quality fine.
